Perfect with a cup of tea on a rainy day like today. After girls night out last night, overflowing with wine. I’m about to get cracking with beef cannelloni for later, which were to go with a good looking Amarone I bought a few weeks ago, but not too sure about the wine at this very moment….. .
I used the recipe from mojewypieki, but should have made half a portion, we might struggle with the amount I made. Should have known better, 540 g of plain flour is a lot. With that 80 g of sugar, a touch of salt, 20 g of fresh yeast, 250 ml of warm milk, 2 eggs, 75 g of melted butter. I made zaczyn first- 3 tbsps of flour, all the yeast, some sugar and most of the milk, 20 minutes later added it to the rest of the ingredients and let Kitchen Aid do the work. It proved for over an hour, then I knocked it down and rolled onto a rectangle. Brushed it with melted butter, then generously sprinkled brown sugar mixed with cinnamon, MUCH less than suggested in the recipe and I still have lots left, I’ll use it for coffee. Rolled it and sliced into 12 buns, very sticky and tricky to handle. Placed into a lined baking tray and left to prove for another 30 minutes. Then baked in 180 degrees for 20 minutes. The house smelled fabulous.
The glaze is ok, not in any way brilliant. Again, could have made half of it and it would have been enough. 60 g of soft butter, 4 tbsps of icing sugar, vanilla paste- whipped. 120 g of Philly added. A splash of milk to make it runny.
Perfect buns for someone who gets up at 6 am and wants to make a family happy with such breakfast. Needless to say- I don’t get up at 6 am to bake. 🙂
